Tuesday's Tribute...

So, this week I would like to tribute another follower/friend whom I know personally. However not like my sister Cheryl, knows her. They are BFs..almost sisters themselves. I met her a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed her contagious laughter. I remember going to meet her for the first time, feeling slightly nervous. The minute she opened the door, that totally dispelled. With Kiera (yay...a name)...you are family. I can see why my sister loves her. When my sister moved away from me, I was so sad (because this is about me). Not long after my sisters arrival to their new home, Kiera entered her life...and their story/friendship continues after almost 10 years.

She is a mother of 4 beautiful children. One of whom was added to their home just over a year ago, via adoption. Now they are excited to add another sweetie to the family the same way. How blessed those children are to have Kiera as a mother. A truly remarkable lady! Click on her pictures or highlighted areas of this post to read and enjoy more about her. She will open her heart to you with the warmest welcome...like she did me!

We all feel like this wonderful woman is just part of our family. She is so much fun and such a great mom, and we all love her to death. Congratulations on the new one Kiera, our hearts are with you!! Thanks for the great tribute to her Mele!! Love you!!!

Perfect Tribute!!! It could not have been better said. I truly believe that no one can get to know Kiera without feeling like she is a member of their family. She is an amazing woman, a fantastic mother and an example to me of what I want to be when I finally grow-up!
